State the Structure/Bonding & Properties of Diamond.
Autor: MiqdaamRespuesta:
STRUCTURE/BONDING: - each carbon joined to 4 others by strong covalent bonds - the carbon atoms form a regular tetrahedral network structure - no free electrons PROPERTIES: - hard, due to the network of carbons held together by strong covalent bonds - this makes it useful for cutting tools like oil rig drills - high melting point, doesn't conduct electricity
